Fast, Reliable Driveway & Pavers Across Aransas Pass
If your driveway in Aransas Pass is cracking, heaving, or holding puddles after every coastal shower, you already know what salt air and shifting soil do to concrete and pavers out here. Paver driveway installation in Aransas Pass typically runs $7,000 to $18,000, while concrete driveways land between $4,500 and $12,000, and driveway sealing costs $250 to $700 depending on square footage. We’ve been building and repairing driveways in this community long enough to know exactly what the ship channel winds and post-Harvey soil conditions demand. Call (877) 610-1318 and we’ll talk through what your driveway actually needs, not what a phone script says it needs.
This isn’t a franchise dispatching strangers to your door. Tom Barrett and his sons run the Driveway & Pavers crews themselves, and Tom’s name, address, and license number are published for anyone who wants to look them up before signing anything. When you call, a live person answers every time.
Why Barrett & Sons Construction Is Aransas Pass’s Preferred Driveway & Pavers Company
We’ve been owner-operated since 1998, and the Barrett name sits on every truck that pulls up in Aransas Pass. The crew members who show up are background-checked, uniformed, and they carry the same last name as the man who signs the contract. Ask anyone on your street about us, or look up the license number yourself. We don’t hide behind a nationwide call center.
Aransas Pass has dealt with more than its share of fly-by-night contractors since Hurricane Harvey. Homeowners here have learned the hard way that a cheap bid with no written scope turns into a surprise invoice before the job is half done. Every scope, every allowance, every price change we make arrives as a written change order before work happens. An allowance that isn’t on paper is a surprise waiting for a date. The permit inspector works for you, not for me, and we pull permits and close out inspections on every eligible driveway and hardscape job.
And when the work is finished, our 90-Day Done Right Promise is written on the contract. If something isn’t right, Tom comes back and makes it right. One call. We live twenty minutes away; if something’s wrong, we want to know about it.
Our Driveway & Pavers Services in Aransas Pass
Here’s what we handle most often for homeowners across the 78335 and 78336 ZIP codes. Each job gets the same treatment: written scope, written change orders, and permits pulled where they’re required.
Paver Driveways
Aransas Pass sits on ground that moves, especially in the post-Harvey rebuild zones where fill dirt and elevated piers meet. Pavers flex with that movement instead of fighting it, which is why so many homeowners along streets near the ship channel are switching to them. We install Techo-Bloc and Cambridge pavers, and a typical paver driveway in Aransas Pass runs $7,000 to $18,000 depending on the bed depth, pattern, and square footage.

Concrete Driveways & Concrete Work
Concrete in Aransas Pass has to contend with salt-laden onshore wind, and that means we’re particular about the mix and the finishing. A standard concrete driveway here runs $4,500 to $12,000. We also pour walkways, pool decks, and stamped concrete for homeowners who want the look of stone without the paver maintenance. Stamped concrete holds up well here when it’s sealed properly every couple of years.

Asphalt Driveways & Resurfacing
Asphalt paving in Aransas Pass runs $3,500 to $9,000 for a full new driveway, and resurfacing over an existing base usually lands on the lower end of that range. Asphalt needs drainage handled right from the start, especially on the flat lots near the bay where water has nowhere to go. We grade before we pave, because a driveway that holds water is a driveway that fails early.

Driveway Repair & Replacement
We see three kinds of repair calls in Aransas Pass: spalling concrete from salt exposure, paver settling from poor base prep after the rebuild, and cracked slabs on older pier-and-beam bungalows that predate Harvey. Full driveway replacement in Aransas Pass runs $5,000 to $14,000. Repair work is less, and we’ll always tell you if a repair buys you real years or if you’re patching something that needs to come out.

Trusted Brands We Service in Aransas Pass
We stock materials from names you can look up, not mystery brands off a van. That means Techo-Bloc and Cambridge Pavers for paver driveways, Quikrete products for concrete work, and the right marine-grade hardware to stand up to the salt air coming off the ship channel. If you’ve got an existing brand of pavers on your property and you’re worried about matching, we’ll bring samples from Aransas Pass jobs we’ve done so you can see the color and texture in person before committing.
Common Driveway & Pavers Problems We See in Aransas Pass Homes
- Salt corrosion on concrete and edge restraints. The constant onshore wind off Corpus Christi Bay carries salt that eats at exposed metal edging and unsealed concrete. We see aluminum edge restraints corroding through within a few years of installation when cheap materials were used. Marine-grade stainless is the fix, and it’s what we spec.
- Heaving and settling on post-Harvey fill. Lots that were raised to meet the new FEMA flood maps sit on compacted fill that settles unevenly for years. A driveway poured on that fill without proper base prep will show cracks and low spots within the first two seasons. We over-excavate and rebuild the base before we pour anything.
- Drainage failures on flat lots near the bay. Aransas Pass is flat, and a driveway that slopes toward the garage or the house sends water straight into foundations and crawl spaces. We regrade and add channel drains where the lot needs it, and we factor drainage into every quote we write.
- Older bungalows with narrow, cracked aprons. A lot of the pre-Harvey pier-and-beam homes in Aransas Pass still have their original narrow concrete aprons, poured decades ago with no reinforcement. When those crack and the house settles, the apron pulls away from the foundation. We repair those with proper control joints so the next crack happens where it’s supposed to.

Yes. We work across the 78335 and 78336 ZIP codes, from the older pier-and-beam streets near the ship channel to the elevated post-Harvey rebuilds further inland. Aransas Pass is a patchwork of legacy homes and new elevated construction, and our crews are comfortable with both.

Prices in Aransas Pass are generally in line with the rest of the Coastal Bend, but two local factors push costs here: the salt air means we spec marine-grade hardware and better sealers, and the post-Harvey fill on many lots means extra base work before anything gets poured. You’ll see that reflected in our written estimate, not as a surprise at the end. Call (877) 610-1318 for an exact quote; estimates are free.
